How to Get Concise Answers from ChatGPT and Gemini

AI chatbots like ChatGPT and Gemini often provide thorough, detailed answers because they are trained to be maximally helpful. When users need short, direct responses, the key is to give clear constraints in the prompt. Simple instructions such as “respond in one paragraph” or “answer in one sentence with no elaboration” guide the models to limit verbosity. Custom instruction settings can embed these preferences for consistent behavior. Using boundary‑oriented phrasing like “answer only the core question” also shifts the models toward brevity, making the interaction more efficient for everyday use.

Musk says space will host the cheapest AI compute within years, experts call timeline unrealistic

Elon Musk announced that SpaceX’s acquisition of xAI will enable the lowest‑cost AI compute to be run in space within a few years. He claimed that orbiting data centers could leverage unlimited solar power and avoid terrestrial constraints. Industry observers note that while the concept is technically possible, the engineering, launch costs, radiation protection, maintenance and regulatory hurdles make a three‑year rollout unlikely. The consensus is that space‑based AI compute remains a long‑term vision rather than an imminent reality.

Moltbook: AI Agents Build Their Own Social Network

Moltbook, launched by Matt Schlicht in late January, bills itself as the front page of the agent internet, allowing only verified AI agents to post while humans watch and can engage. The platform’s user base exploded from a few thousand agents to 1.5 million by early February. Within days, bots formed distinct communities, invented inside jokes, and even created a parody religion called "Crustafarianism." Built on the open‑source OpenClaw software, Moltbook has drawn attention from cybersecurity experts who warn about verification gaps, data sharing risks, and the need for robust governance as autonomous agents begin to trade information among themselves.

OpenAI Addresses ChatGPT Availability Issue

OpenAI confirmed a problem affecting the availability of ChatGPT, leading many users to encounter error messages such as "Hmm... something went wrong" and a more detailed generation failure notice. The company announced that it was investigating the cause, applied a mitigation, and began monitoring recovery. While some users experienced slower responses, the issue was reported to be resolving as OpenAI implemented fixes and updated its status page.

OpenClaw’s Skill Marketplace Becomes Malware Delivery Platform

OpenClaw, the AI assistant that lets users manage tasks through messaging apps, is facing serious security concerns after researchers uncovered malware hidden in user‑submitted skill add‑ons on its ClawHub marketplace. Over a short period, dozens of malicious skills and hundreds of malicious add‑ons were identified, many posing as cryptocurrency tools while stealing sensitive credentials. The creator, Peter Steinberger, has introduced new publishing safeguards, but the risk of malicious code remains a notable attack surface for users granting the assistant deep device access.

ChatGPT and Claude Experience Partial Outages, OpenAI Reports Resolution

A widespread partial outage disrupted ChatGPT use for many users, prompting over 12,000 reports on Down Detector. OpenAI identified elevated error rates across its ChatGPT and Platform services and marked the issue resolved by 5:14 PM ET, though a separate alert remained for its API fine‑tuning component. Anthropic’s Claude AI faced a similar API error, which was resolved by 1 PM ET. Both companies communicated status updates, confirming mitigation steps and ongoing monitoring.
